Declaration of the Students of the European Peace University

The students of the European Peace University - Private University, based on their positive experiences, have decided to support the advertising of the academic programs of the 2012/2013 academic year starting in Fall 2013 with the following declaration:

We, the students of the European Peace University - Private University, would like to recommend potential applicants to study Peace and Conflict Studies as well as European Peace and Security Studies at a private university, accredited by the Austrian Accreditation Council and the Austrian Federal Ministry for Science and Research, in Stadtschlaining, Burgenland, Austria. At the end of their studies students receive an MA Degree which is accredited according to the Bologna Process of the European Union.

Our professors come from a number of continents and are outstanding representatives of their fields of research. We are impressed by the well-rounded program and the high-level discussion in the seminars. Studying in a multicultural environment, learning much about cultural differences and tolerance - also outside the seminar room - is one of the great benefits when studying at EPU.

In Stadtschlaining, the EPU students stay in the comfortable, friendly, hotel standard accommodation facility “Haus International”, the students’ residence with single room arrangement for all students and professors. The special multicultural atmosphere placed in the scenery of the medieval Stadtschlaining with a 15th century castle, housing also the main offices of the EPU, serves as a great addition to the overall positive impressions we have gained during our study trimesters here.

Please check our website (www.epu.ac.at) or the Facebook Site of the EPU for more information and photos.

We are looking forward to having new and motivated students for the EPU MA Programs in the academic year 2012-2013 who are ready to face non-traditional academic challenges at an international private university with a family-like atmosphere.
